According to the court documents, Williams formed and promoted SWAG Nation but was neither an employer, officer or a director. Swag Nation was under contract with the parish to provide the service through the juvenile court.

In the documents, Williams’ camp says the indictment is insufficient because it fails to allege a scheme to defraud “by way of false and material statements or any intent that harm result from such alleged fraud.”

A pretrial conference is scheduled to take place at 2 p.m. Dec. 17, the deadline for Williams to enter a plea.
